They changed your generic lamictal maker? Or the dosage too? Did they change or adjust your other meds at the same time? (I always wonder why any prescriber does that. How could one figure out what is causing what?!) Two weeks, huh? I hope that mellows out for you very soon!

Boo hiss on trade-offs! Were they able to adjust the dosage up so it could do as well, or did you have to go back to the brand name?

Went back to brand name, and was okay

That's an awful feeling.
Fortunately, it wasn't
quite that bad, but when I laid down for a bit, I did wonder if I should bring the bucket along(!) Turned out alright in regards to that.

Will do!
It probably does. I think that's why it struck me so strangely -- I mean, been on this roller coaster for quite some time and try to be well-informed, yet couldn't recall reading about physical symptoms from different generic manufacturers(!) Maybe it just didn't register on the ol' brain cell.
A little bit nervous about tonight's portion of the dose (I do am/pm), though better to be at night. If it goes well, that'll help apprehension about tomorrow morning's, since it'd be right before work, and that would be no fun.
Fingers crossed. I'm pretty tolerant of adjustment issues, but nausea (especially in tandem with lightheadedness) makes me rather agitated and anxious, and there's quite enough of that already(!) Thanks, guys -- that's a state that's hard to think straight in and it's a comfort to know you all are there in such a time.
